In a mild way yes

I don’t hear voices every day but some delusions stick around for a long time, even several years

Probably have it everyday, with other types of symptoms, racing thoughts, disorganized thoughts, anxiety.

I struggle with delusions everyday. Occasionally I hear voices but not too often.

8

i was told to write down my thoughts in the mental hospital but i must add burn them because they mean noting

I used to here voices 24/7 for atleast 6-10 months in 2011 I forget how long exactly. It was a bit panic inducing because it wouldn’t cease.

I have Vivid dreams and I keep waking up throughout the night. Sometimes my mind shuts off and I wake up in peace. But since I started meditating it has been helping me stay calm and relaxed. I was also have severe anxiety and depression but since I stopped watching porn my depression and anxiety are gone. I didn’t realize how damaging porn was until I started doing research on it. I hear random internal dialogues and voices here and there. I remember I was taking a different type of Clonazepam and it stopped all my racing thoughts but my memory went to sh!t.

I also have random flashbacks of abuse that I went through as a child and other odd memories and instances that I keep seeing. The thing I’m most scared about is becoming delusional again which the medication has gotten rid off. When it’s raining and there is no Sun is when I get depressed sometimes. Other than that my psychosis is still lingering in the background.

I just don’t know if I was a terrorist or not. Everything I experienced felt so real. There are supposedly 184,000 terrorists in the world so the odds are more likely I’m schizophrenic. But I can’t get over how real it felt. I’m also supposedly of the number that hasn’t been captured and now wants to get taken to North Korea.

I tend to get paranoid occasionally. I don’t really know if that’s psychosis. My paranoid moments aren’t reality though.

That’s how I used to be before I started taking adderall. I’d be scared of SUVs thought they were following me. I also thought I heard whispers in my apartment. One time in the daytime some guy with sunglasses came knocking on my door and that really made me paranoid. I’d be scared of cars through my apartment window–thought it meant something. This was all minor compared to what I feel now. It feel 100% (well for the most part) that they will take me away. And I’m not quite sure what to do about it. Before I thought it was moving away from where I was. I heard a voice say it would be harder as you get older. Now I feel like it’s harder since I’m not sure what to do. But that’s not really older older, it’s only been 6 months since I heard this. But still there’s no clarity what to do next.

Well, I was intensely, severely psychotic for about the first two years of my illness when I was 19-21. Now, at age 59 I don’t know if I would be called psychotic. I still have delusions and paranoia but they are managable and nowhere near as bad as it was when I was 19.

Is there such a thing as mild psychosis, lol? Because I feel OK a lot of the time. It took me thirty years but now I can relax and have peace of mind often. I feel on edge sometimes but except for a two day blip 5 years ago, I had not been hospitalized since 1990.
I get the hint that my reality is probably different from most peoples; if that’s psychotic, then I’m guilty of it.

But yeah, at this point I’m just cruisin’. Going with the flow and not even close to suffering.

Reading other people’s experiences I realise that I’ve never experienced true psychosis. So I’m stuck with an ill-fitting label.

  • Two spirits in my head (Alien and Sarah)
  • Alien the evil spirit tries to insert his thoughts in my head and sometimes removes them
  • Mother in law trying to control my mind and read my thoughts and poison me (but that’s really possible as she’s a cold hearted woman)
  • people can sometimes read my mind if I make eye contact
  • devil trying to get into my body through my private parts (mild belief but it’s still there)
  • my husband wants to kill me (as I want divorce)
